Fried devil's horns...

...as a particular lady calls them. I'm normally not big on chicken wings and I usually like my meat without bones. But these ones from cafeteria at Ikea (Level 2F, 317 Alexandra Road S159965, tel : 63781604) which goes at $7.50 for 6 (the first number of the beast!) are pretty good and are one of the exceptions with regards to how I generally view them. What I like about them is the lack of batter and the nice browning of the crispy skin. They're also not too tiny that there is barely any meat on the bones. Of course they are juicy and laden with grease and padded with some fat beneath the skin. Which self respecting delectable doesn't kill you in small delicious steps. Fried devil's horns does.
